Im a UK singaporean med student. From what I heard, takes about 6 mths for UK grads, 12 for Australian grads to acclimatise apparently. I have a few seniors who are doing quite well back in sg, one won best junior dr award or something.
most sg/msia students in UK unis tend to top their batches so their knowledge is normally quite good, guess it is just adjusting to a different system, learning malay, dialect, mandarin etc
